A 2022-year contract was signed in 3, and an increase of 36 percent was agreed in the first year, 20 percent in the first six months of the second year, and 17 percent in the second six months.

Gümrükçü said, “We did not predict that inflation would increase this much after the contract signed 3 years ago, but at this point, the increase arising from the contract was unfortunately below the inflation rate. We met with union officials and stated that we were ready to make the necessary raise and that we would never victimize our employees. Thus, we signed the additional protocol. "I wish good luck to our friends," he said.
